I blame Rick Adelman for this loss. He had to know adjustments were coming for Yao and he still couldn't find a way to get him the ball. That plus all the missed freethrows hurt us. Oh well, at least we got one in Portland. Good game Blazers, see you Friday
Yea but you hear Yao and Adelman say after every game "we have a plan for fronting, it just wasn't executed the right way". Just throw the balloff the backboard and let Yao catch it for the easy dunk. They should try it at least once
